Re: Original Ignition Lock visor sleeve for 69
 

hang on..I didnt want to step on any toes...I need to dig it out of the safe and snap a pic.

Re: Original Ignition Lock visor sleeve for 69
 

here ya go, they slid on the visor and when you flipped it down you could read how to start your new fangled Chevy, note the date on mine pretty early for a 69 veh.

also it it looks a little weird as I snapped the pic on the office chair and did not catch it until I was resizing the darn thing, anyway you can see what we are talking about, I dont know if there common but mine was the first one I have ever seen.

Re: Original Ignition Lock visor sleeve for 69
 

This is a rough crowd https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

On the sleeve I'm selling, I'm not even sure of the application other than Camaro. It is for a 'large visor' (such as Camaro) as opposed to a 'small visor' (such as the Corvette). You can tell the difference by the part # as well as the margin space from the fold to where the lettering begins.

What I know (very little) pertains to the Vette. Initially, at the beginning of the model year, there was a decal used to warn the owner not to manipulate the shift bowl or damage could result. This decal had two designs, was placed on the jacket forward of the steering wheel (orientation dependant on whether the car had tilt/tele or not) and was used until approximately early to middle summer of 69.

The original design visor sleeve (7/68), such as the one pictured above, where the arrow is displayed on one side, is the 'first edition' and was very short lived. For the Vette folks, these are extremely rare. It was used, typically, with the column decal until the second design visor sleeve (10/68) appeared. At that point, it is not uncommon to find both the sleeve and decal, just the decal or just the visor sleeve displayed. NCRS has determined this by observing original cars. At some point during the summer, the decal was dropped and only the visor sleeve appeared.

I believe that both of these sleeves as well as the second design column decal is being reproduced.

Now, one of you cheapskates needs to purchase my part https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif

Re: Original Ignition Lock visor sleeve for 69
 

Yep..Marks right.
That was their application/time period,but it was available on ALL new GM Cars when the Column mounted Ignition switch started on the 1969 models....with Red locating dab in detent. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smirk.gif
Jim Osborn Inc.has been reproducing both designs:
*DC0760 early 1969 dated 7/9/68 Ign. Start Sleeve 7" long #3961387-$3.50

*DC0721 1969-71 dated 10/2/68 Ign. Start Sleeve 6" long #3964573-$3.50

Re: Original Ignition Lock visor sleeve for 69
 

Thnx for the info guys...just a wild stab in the dark, if originals are pulling good money the ropops are not 100% correct then???

Re: Original Ignition Lock visor sleeve for 69
 

Mine is PN.3964572. dated 10-2-68 https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Re: Original Ignition Lock visor sleeve for 69
 

I don't know what originals actually sell for, but it seems it must be less than 400.00, since there are plenty of folks around here who are not "cheapskates" and no one is fighting over it at that price. Asking a price and getting a price are 2 different things all together. ( I should know! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif )As for the repops, I don't know what the specific difference is, but just like nearly every (if not all) repro parts, you can probably figure there's something thats not visually correct about them. If originals really do sell for 4 bills a pop, I think you'll start seeing alot more for sale in the near future. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: Original Ignition Lock visor sleeve for 69
 

Joe may be absolutely right on $400 being high. Thing is, the Corvette ones are going for that kind of dough and that is what I was going by. If the application of the 'large visor' ones were all the large visor 69s, then it would stand to reason there are a lot more of them still in circulation. It seemed to me better to ask more and maybe not sell it than to ask less than what it is worth.

Cheapskates is probably not the right word either, I should have said tightwads https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: Original Ignition Lock visor sleeve for 69
 

Well come on, someone on here has to have a repop. Give us a side by side comparison. How hard can it be to reprint one of these?

Re: Original Ignition Lock visor sleeve for 69
 

Ricks first generation sells them for 3.50. They look pretty good.

Re: Original Ignition Lock visor sleeve for 69
 

I can probably guess they don't have the same appearance do to the paper they were printed on originally, I am sure they can get the text right on if they try and pictures as well but when they apply the ink it probably comes out noticeable different from a original in texture and look....there again they could correct that to if they wanted but how much effort are they going to put into something selling at $3.50 a shot...hang in there Mark with all the hub bub on this thread half the country is looking for some about now..hit e bay with it.

Bud.
